Preparation of the spin-Mott state: a spinful Mott insulator of repulsively bound pairs
Julius de Hond, Jinggang Xiang, Woo Chang Chung +5
We observe and study a special ground state of bosons with two spin states in an optical lattice: the spin-Mott insulator, a state that consists of repulsively bound pairs which is…
Tunable Single-Ion Anisotropy in Spin-1 Models Realized with Ultracold Atoms
Woo Chang Chung, Julius de Hond, Jinggang Xiang +2
Mott insulator plateaus in optical lattices are a versatile platform to study spin physics. Using sites occupied by two bosons with an internal degree of freedom, we realize a unia…
Coherence Times of Bose-Einstein Condensates beyond the Shot-Noise Limit via Superfluid Shielding
William Cody Burton, Colin J. Kennedy, Woo Chang Chung +3
We demonstrate a new way to extend the coherence time of separated Bose-Einstein condensates that involves immersion into a superfluid bath. When both the system and the bath have…
Observation of Bose-Einstein Condensation in a Strong Synthetic Magnetic Field
Colin J. Kennedy, William Cody Burton, Woo Chang Chung +1
Extensions of Berry's phase and the quantum Hall effect have led to the discovery of new states of matter with topological properties. Traditionally, this has been achieved using g…
